National Year of Reading - Genealogy Challenge

I have set myself a genealogy challenge for this Australia's National Year of Reading. As I am a teacher librarian I also need to read to keep up with the students at my school. It looks like it will be a busy year.

Each of the books listed below come from my bookshelf. I have selected 12 - an equivalent of one per month. Most of them have a special significance. Some will be more challenging than others and a couple of them I'll be able to read in an hour. I'll review each of them here. What books are you going to read this year?

To have any chance of finishing I will need to finish half this month. Half way through The Arsenic Century - fascinating reading. I'm actually having trouble putting it down. I'm surprised anyone survived Victorian England!
